SDL_GetDefau...utputFunction(3)

💖 SDL_GetDefaultLogOutputFunction 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL3 FUNCTIONS section of the manual, and today we're getting cozy with SDL_GetDefaultLogOutputFunction. it's giving "i just want the original log callback back," and honestly? same.

---

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_GetDefaultLogOutputFunction — get the default log output function. that's it, that's the whole job. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_log.h>

SDL_LogOutputFunction SDL_GetDefaultLogOutputFunction(void);

no arguments, no drama. she takes void and she means it. 💅

---

🦋 RETURN VALUE 🦋

she hands you back the default log output callback.

heads up bestie: when you actually call that callback, the userdata argument should be NULL. that's the whole vibe. don't be out here passing random stuff into it. 🙈

---

🧚 THREAD SAFETY 🧚

it is safe to call this function from any thread. go wild, queen. multithreaded logging rights. 👑

---

⭐ AVAILABILITY ⭐

this one's been around since SDL 3.2.0. so if you're on anything older, no callback for you. 😭

---

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

• SDL_SetLogOutputFunction(3) — for when you want to swap the log output function out for your own
• SDL_GetLogOutputFunction(3) — for when you want to peek at whatever's currently set

mwah that's the whole page. thanks for coming to my ted talk, and remember: the default is always there for you. 💜

Simple Directmedia Layer — SDL 3.4.18 🫶 that's the source and version tag, and this lil page is dated to match. slay, go log something. ✨
